    Barnyard mix Turkrns, MW's-?, Spitz

    Mamawolf, I just noticed you need payment as soon as the auction ends. PP is not a problem but I have a doctors appointment in the morning so I won't be back till around lunch. Will this hurt? I sure hope not. Keith

    Thanks for letting me know mamawolf. I've never had any turkens, Spitz or midget Turkeys. I'm so looking forward to trying to win this batch I love the Turkeys. I've bought some before on EBay and not one Turkey hatched. Please keep us updated. Thanks Keith

    Check this video out from youtube . I saw it and do my roosters this way. Lots easier than trying to cut them.

    10 missing, found feather piles in tall brush

    I know this is going to sound cruel but the way Coyotes are killing chickens and really destroying rabbit & deer populations ( Or at least here in SC). The easiest way to catch them is get you some steel fishing leaders with rather large hooks and add some chunks of chicken meat on it and tie...

    Hatchery shipping this late in the year?

    Ideal is a good one, I just ordered 15 Silver sebrights and they sent them along with 10 Barred rocks to help keep them warm for free. They came in yesterday and all were beautiful. They seem to be a very good hatchery...

    Incubator fan question???

    Hi all I am in the process of building my first home made incubator and have a question. Should your fans be on full time or just when the heat kicks in? I'm thinking of adding it to the next incubator contest. I'm very proud of it. I used a old oak TV stand I got at a garage sale and some old...

    Peafowl in S.C.???

    I know it's late in the year but I am wanting some peafowl. Anyone here in S.C. have them? I have ordered quite a few eggs this year from EBay and they all died a day or two before hatching. I've had great success hatching chickens and guineas but Turkey & pheasants haven't made it. They all...

    Help! 3 owls and still counting

    I know how you feel I've not seen the owls yet but used to hear one now I hear 4 to 5 hooting all around. I live out in the country and love all my chickens. They seem to go after the smaller ones like young chickens or bantams. As soon I see one I will protect my birds at all cost. I love...

    I cracked a egg and there are 7 days until hatch date

    Hello Everyone nice to meet you all, I'm new here but have done a good deal of hatching this year to get a flock going. I read about the wax thing when I had a egg from one of my hens I really wanted hatched. The main thing is to keep air out of the crack so I covered mine with white out and the...
